Mirror gone on Custis at I-66 Glebe Exit

I have been out of town a few days so I am not sure when this went missing. This morning as I rode in on the Custis (eastbound), I noticed that the mirror at I-66 Glebe Exit overpass intersection was gone (where eastbound riders head up hill on an overpass and need to make a blind right turn, west bound riders make a blind left, and there is an entrance trail from Glebe that looks more like the trail. I would attach a Google picture, but the camera vans apparently do not travel on the trails (A good thing too!).

When did this disappear? Has anyone told the county yet? If not, I will.

Yesterday morning there was a large landscaper's truck parked at that spot - I didn't notice if the mirror was missing then, but I noticed it gone on my homeward commute that afternoon; it made me wonder if the landscape guys ran into it. I meant to tell the county but by the time I got home I forgot. Derp.

Yesterday morning I saw the mirror broken on the ground. I didn't think to report it since I've never used it and did not realize it had utility for others.

Yeah, I usually check it so I know whether I need to worry about folks approaching the blind turn. I just reported it using Arlington's online service request tool.

Thank you for reporting it. I will try to do so too - if multiple people report it, maybe it can be replaced. Hopefully with the same sized one - not the tiny one they added by the underpass of I-66 shortly before it Ts the W&OD.

The service request now has a comment from a representative of arlingtonva:

Multiple service requests have been submitted for this issue and they have all been merged into the following ticket number #2904765 to avoid duplication and improve service delivery. You will continue to be notified of the status of this work through the new ticket number #2904765.
